HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN Cryptographic Library
HPE Aruba Networking EdgeConnect SD-WAN Cryptographic Library, from HPE Aruba Networking, holds FIPS 140-2 certificate #4541 at overall level 1. The validation is historical: agencies may keep the module in existing systems but not buy it new. Below are its algorithm certificates, its validation history, and the list moves this tracker has observed, which NIST does not date.
Caveat: When operated in FIPS mode. No assurance of the minimum strength of generated keys
